As we travel further and further along the electronic frontier through advances such as telecommuting(在家办公 ) and the Internet, the poor may be isolated from mainstream society in an “ information ghetto ( 贫民窟 )“. Drawing on a survey, the Census Bureau( 国家调查局 ) estimated tha

21、t only 6.8 percent of households earning less than $ 10,000 had home computers, compared to 61. 7 percent of those with incomes of $ 75,000 or more. This issue goes beyond individual interest or lack of interest in computers. The technological advances of the present and future may not be equally be

22、neficial to men and women. Many studies have shown that computer games, which serve as an important means of early socialization to computers, typically involve sports or skills associated with the traditional male role. As a result computers camps have become mainly male settings. Like money, food,

23、 and other resources, technology is unevenly distributed within societies and throughout the world. The technology gap is widening rather than narrowing. Although nations are exchanging technical data more freely than before, critical technology transfer is often kept back. The technology exported t

24、o developing countries may be poorly suited to the conditions of their economies and workplaces. 36 According to the writer, “information ghetto“ is caused by_. （ A） the strict control of information （ B） the rapid technological advances （ C） the complete isolation of the poor （ D） the existence of

29、s in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which will be counted towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses, each lasting for one term. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen wee

30、ks; a student will probably attend four or five courses during each term while attending a university. Normally a student may expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. Of course, they can work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between o

31、ne university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.
